Despite shaky start to round two, Justin Rose leads the Masters

Rose shot even par 72 on a softer and more receptive course Friday while a host of players made big moves to line up closer behind him

With lots of tea and no TV, Justin Rose slept on the second-largest first-round lead in tournament history and despite treading water he remained atop the leaderboard at 7-under par halfway through the 85th Masters.

Rose shot even par 72 on a softer and more receptive course Friday while a host of players made big moves to line up closer behind him at Augusta National Golf Club. His lead was cut to one stroke by Masters rookie Will Zalatoris and Brian Harman with 2015 champion Jordan Spieth and Marc Leishman tied fourth at 5-under.
